This House Has Walls For a Reason

I wanna know who you are
But not too well
This house has walls for a reason
I want to open up
But time will tell
If feeling is back in season

You've got baggage?
Well, I've got mileage
and it's exceeding my insurance
Sorry if I'm absent or repeat myself
But you seem kind of caught up in hoping I was somebody else

I am so far removed
From what could have been
Just keep up your wall
Like it's inside your skin

Your heart still races
At his every notification
And I can see you double take
Into crowded rooms
Looking for his face

I am so far removed
From what could have been
Just keep up your wall
Like it's inside your skin

Where's the joy in something that never ends
Where's the hope in something you can't defend
What's the point of this empty happiness
Or do you really think I am not who I am?

I am so far removed
From what could have been
Just keep up your wall
Like it's inside your skin

I am exhausted
I am done
I wish you knew who I was
But I guess this house has walls for a reason
